Flash drive - Transformers flash drive that can transform into a toy Jaguar

This flash drive is really interesting because it can be transformed into a Jaguar shaped toy as a personal decoration on your work desk. After that, it also can be transformed into a robot-shaped usb flash drive with the usb dogle as it's head, eyes and nose. At least it is not a car shaped flash drive.



Cute! But, this is not Optimus Prime, BumbleBee, Rachet or Jazz just in Transformers movie.

This is Tigatron, an AutoBot transformer than transforms into a Jaguar robot toy. If you watched Transformers 2 - Revenge Of The Fallen, you will see a Jaguar-shaped transformers robot, but it was a Decepticon, not the Autobot just like The Tigatron.

It has 2GB storage capacity, sold in a Japanese website named Strapya World. The price is 3,990 yen (around $43.85) - about RM153.48 Malaysian Ringgit. Pergggh!

SlashGear covers this story so fast! This is a pocket camcorder with installed mini projector. How to use it? Simply take it out from your pocket and shoot recorded data you have stored earlier in the webcam for quick sharing with friends and family.

Very useful when we travel or in family vacation. Originally, DigiLife DDV-JF1 is a HD digital video recorder or called pocket HD camcorder for some people.

What make it so interesting is the additional mini pico projector. Record anything, anywhere at anytime. Videos you recorded will be stored in its SD memory card (upgradeable to 32GB) then play it back on screen using the projector.

The design is quite awkward from what i see in the image. Why not produce it in black or in cute pink?

Logitech Anywhere MX mouse goes anywhere in its sexy style

At the first time i saw the image of this mouse, all i can say i was sexy like Apple Magic Mouse! Logitech Anywhere MX Mouse comes with an ergonomic design for easy gripping and easy movement - you will fell it with your thumb.

This mouse's left thumb rest has small curved-in hole makes your thumb feel much comfortable than gripping compared to an ordinary mouse, complete with two function button programmable for various purpose. The MX Mouse also comes with recharge its terminal, software CD and carrying pouch.

I think Logitech Anywhere MX mouse especially created for 15 hours computer user who sit for a long hours in front of their computer. I love the design. But its technology still cant beat the expensive pointing device technology from Microsoft Sidewinder, and GlideTV Navigator.

Pink HD digital camcorder

This HD pink camcorder is not for cancer and its not for charity works either just like what i've covered in Sony Pink Vaio, Sony pink eReader for eBooks, HP Pink netbook for chicks. Today, men are turning on pink color too to show their gentleman side and to tell ladies these type of men is packed with full self confidence.

The pink camcorder records video in high definition video up to 30 frames per second, in its 1280×720 resolution screen resolution. It has 2 slots for removeable SD memory cards and its viewing lid has some feminine decoration.

However, image i've found no brand name of this camera and its China made - signal for Sony to make its move to start selling pink camcorder! If they created pink camcorder and sells well, other brand like Sony, Panasonic should be aware. Pink sells.

Spy gadget - spy calculator with spycam

This big calculator looks usual but it has a hidden spycam. It contains 8GB internal memory, doesnt need much loght to operate. So, it means that this calculator snap images even under low-light circumstances.

Aside from its solar panel, the calculator spycam powers up using 9 volt battery. The spycam is hidden in right side of the calculator, not in the front panel as i think. I classified it as 'not-so-cool' spy gadget. Other spy gadget can perform much better than this one - look at spy keychain or alarm clock spycam for close example.

I cannot recommended it for you - unless you wanna use it only for personal calculator, or as a gift to your new bride friend. Just in case they put it on while making love! This lovely gadget sold at $78.99 US Dollar.
